I voted Cirion, having painted him recently.
But I would also say that the Master of Rivendell Elrond also has a very ugly face.

I'm sure there are others but for me Cirion and Theodred take the cake. |

^All orcs are uglier than the ugliest human. That's too easy, but Gothmog is the ugliest orc, true. |

No way! Cirion just requires a super careful paint job (not a slight to your painting skills, just an observation from when I painted cirion). His eyes are very tiny, it is best to not paint his eyes and just out a bit of wash in there to add some shadow. Also, he looks way better with a beard. Theodred is awful. |

Last Alliance Elrond. I cringe at the thought I still have one of those to paint. |

Gilgalad looks a bit weird as well, but the ugliest one is probaly last alliance Elrond |

My vote goes to Gil-Galad....he's looks like the late, great Walter Matthau !

I'd say the first version of Samwise the Brave on pony is pretty awful, though if it was between Theodred and Cirion, I'd say poor old Theo loses the beauty contest. |

The DoS Legolas looks appalling in the official pics. If the old ones were a spitting image of Orlando Bloom, this one is more Vladimir Putin!  Gothmog is ugly, but I think that's intentional and accurate, rather than a poor sculpt. He actually looks like the film version, really. |

I'm surprised Last Alliance Elrond would get some heat because I thought he looked like Weaving. I have him primed but haven't painted him up yet, same with Gil-Galad. The Legolas above may not be Orlando, but what Hobbit miniature is like the actor? At least that face looks symmetrical. |

The issue with LA Elrond I think is less the sculpt of the face but the fact that compared to the bdy/shoulders, the head itself is rather huge. On the side note of resemblance, I actually thought the Thorin, Dwalin and Kili from EFGT were pretty spot on. The others less so, although Gandalf, Gloin and Dori are pretty close. |
